My new ride....

[David Lowry]

Just bought this 2 days ago and got rid of my '01 Taurus. I hated that car. It's a 2007 Accord SE.

My wife has an Accord also. We have had 3 Honda Accords before this one and we love them. Great cars. So now we have 2. :)

See the Spydie sticker? :)

I love the V6 accords. Congradulations mang.

[JspyEDC]

I miss my Honda V6 Accord very much. I wish I could put that incredible V6 into what I drive now.... (I will not reveal what I am driving now so as to not become labeled as not "GREEN" friendly.)

Honda V6...best engine ever made. I know you will enjoy your new one. Congrats!

[David Lowry]

Thanks guys. Yeah I love the V6. I've driven very fast cars so this is by no means very fast but it's darn fast for a family sedan. :)

[jaislandboy]

looks great David, I'm a fan of Honda engines too ;)

Yeah but before that happens I have to give 'em a reason to pull me over. I try not to do that. ;)

Besides, before federal work, when I was in patrol, I generally asked everybody if they had weapons or drugs on them or in their vehicle. With a Spyderco sticker I probably would have added, "Nice knives:D ".

As for "non-Green" things that people drive--my wife's GMC Yukon Denali is pretty far up on the list--about 11.8 miles per gallon, normally. Now, since she is, most of the time, hauling four to six people in the vehicle, the people miles per gallon is much higher than that of the smug guy in his Toyota Prius Hybrid who is driving alone. If I could fit my family, stuff, dogs, etc. in something smaller I would. I wish Audi made a stretched A6 station wagon with third row seats and with just a little less interior room than the old Oldsmobile Vista Cruisers. If they did, I would drive it. Of course, they would never sell--no one likes station wagons anymore.

Nice Honda David. They just keep on going and going. We have had Hondas and Acuras. Currently, our other vehicle (primarily driven by me) is a Subaru WRX.

Nice ride David. Best wishes for many years of safe motoring with it.

Congrats David! I love Honda's. I'm on my second civic and it has 160K miles and is still purring like a kitten.:)

Speaking of not being "GREEN" friendly, I get 10 miles per gallon on a good day. I have wanted a big, black 4x4 ever since I was 16 years old, and you know what? I don't care what anybody thinks. It's my truck, I wanted it, I worked hard to get it, and I deserve it. BTW, yes, I am also a fan of Honda's and Toyota's.

Congrats David. It's always been Toyota or Honda for me. A significant upgrade from a Taurus. Accords are beautiful, fuel efficient, and reliable as hell. Very good choice! It looks great!

Want to buy a 2.5L Turbo Outback :D

Honda is a great car and i dont think you can go wrong with them.

[Monocrom]

NICE!

How much horsepower and torque you get out of that V-6?

[Piercieve]

I think they have 240 HP at the crank. As for torque, clueless...

[snuffaluff]

hey Jay, that's a nice truck brother! I'd drive it anytime.

I like honda's too though, you can't beat em. They seem to never break down(knocks on wood) and they are smooth on the road. Seem to be made of quality which means a lot in vehicles. They don't rattle like a GM right off the showroom floor.

[David Lowry]

NICE!

24-valve V6

Nice truck. The one big problem you will have with that one is probably the "Hey Jay, you know I am moving this weekend and seeing as you have that big truck...:D" I won't mention how many times I have had that one used on me, but I have moved a lot of people:p, and I haven't been asked as much since I got rid of my big truck. Of course, now it is "Hey, you work out. You know I have this heavy dining room set and I am moving this weekend...:eek:"

[Dr. Snubnose]

Ay David Congrats on the new wheels...I too just acquired a new auto and I know how thrilling it is to go out and polish it each day till the Novocaine wears off...or the paint whichever goes first...My new ride is a V8...with gas prices the way they are I keep saying..what the heck did I do....LOL....but now I can go super fast and be broke faster;)...Enjoy and use the newbie in good health...Doc:D
